Bring concert-quality sound into your home with this digital piano crafted in Japan.
MoMA Exclusive: Technology meets artisan craftsmanship in this handcrafted Japanese wood piano. A collaboration between Roland and legendary furniture maker Karimoku, the Roland Kiyola KF-20 trades the boxy silhouette of traditional digital pianos for a slim, midcentury modern design with graceful, rounded edges and slender legs.
Unlike most digital instruments that rely on pre-recorded sound sampling, the Kiyola utilizes innovative piano modeling to recreate the live, physical response and authentic feel of a true acoustic grand piano. Complete with an immersive four-speaker array, a hybrid wood-and-plastic keyboard that mimics real ivory, a posture-supporting ergonomic bench, and a three-foot pedal unit, it is an instrument designed to blend seamlessly into the modern home. Some assembly required.
Features of the Roland Kiyola Piano KF-20 include:
Handcrafted in Japan from premium all-natural wood, ensuring each piano features a completely unique grain pattern.
Powered by Piano Reality Modeling alongside an 88-key PHA-50 hybrid keyboard with advanced acceleration sensing for a true grand piano-like touch and expressive tone colors.
Warm piano tone.
Features an organic, curved silhouette with an integrated cabinet lid that doubles as a music rest; control buttons are cleanly tucked on the side to eliminate visual distraction.
The ergonomic piano bench supports posture and protects your spine. The wider sitting area distributes your weight evenly with a soft, high-density foam cushion.
Includes a dedicated 3-pedal unit supporting full expression, sustaining sounds, muting strings, and advanced half-pedal techniques.
Seamlessly pairs with iOS and Android devices via Bluetooth to stream high-quality audio through the piano’s wireless speakers, utilize music-making apps, or customize sound effects and metronomes via the Roland Piano App.
Equipped with a DC-in jack, mini/stereo ¼” headphone jacks, USB-A memory ports, and a USB-C port for mobile charging or direct computer recording (USB MIDI/Audio compatible).
Measures 31h x 55w x 13.3"d when lid is closed and 36"h when lid is open.
Lighting conditions may affect the color of your piano in various environments. Color-chip samples can be made available upon request for temporary use to evaluate actual finish color.
